Looks like Rupert Grint spent between 12-15 seconds getting ready to film the reunion special.

In a movie series with great casting throughout, always thought he was a big miss.

I'm actually reading the Harry Potter series for the first time and haven't seen any movie since the first. I was already a little older when all of it came out so I didn't partake.

I'm liking it way more than I thought I would. I've burned through the first 4 books and am currently reading the 5th.

I'll always remember logging in to play World of Warcraft and chat was being spammed with SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE and kids going crazy.

Of the three kids, I though Ron was actually a decent cast.

Hermione was fine, but much too pretty for the role and seemed to almost regress in her acting as the series continued.

Harry was awful.

Book 6 is my favorite... and least favorite movie.

Book 5 is a book I feel I liked more on subsequent readings, and is at the top of the series. However, the first read through, it's just so freaking depressing. The ending is fantastic.

I had never read any of the books when the first movie came out. My wife (a teacher) had. She was psyched to see this movie, but I had little interest.

I made a deal with her: I would go see Harry Potter with her and a few weeks later, she went with me to see The Lord of the Rings: the Fellowship of the Ring.

I really enjoyed Harry Potter and she did not like LoTR. She never saw another one and I accompanied her to every subsequent HP film.

Have you divorced her yet?

That is b.s.
